Abstract
Ultra-narrowband blue multi-resonance-induced thermally activated delayed fluorescence (MR-TADF) materials (V-DABNA and V-DABNA-F), consisting of three DABNA subunits possessing phenyl or 2,6-difluorophenyl substituents on the peripheral nitrogen atoms are synthesized by one-shot triple borylation. Benefiting from the inductive effect of fluorine atoms, the emission maximum of V-DABNA-F (464nm) is blueshifted from that of the parent V-DABNA (481nm), while maintaining a small full width at half maximum (FWHM, 16nm) and a high rate constant for reverse intersystem crossing (6.5 × 105 s-1 ). The organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) using V-DABNA and V-DABNA-F as emitters are fabricated by vapor deposition and exhibit blue emission at 483 and 468nm with small FWHMs of 17 and 15nm, corresponding to Commission Internationale d'Éclairage coordinates of (0.09, 0.27) and (0.12, 0.10), respectively. Both devices achieve high external quantum efficiencies of 26.2% and 26.6% at the maximum with minimum efficiency roll-offs of 0.9% and 3.2%, respectively, even at 1000cd m-2 , which are record-setting values for blue MR-TADF OLEDs.
